Scotland band I Will Take You Hunting (https://www.facebook.com/iwilltakeyouhunting) impressed me a couple of years ago when they released their 2nd album Don't go to bed mad, stay up and fight all night, a song from which I highlighted here : https://justsomepunksongs.blogspot.com/2022/05/i-will-take-you-hunting-stop-rot.html
Now they're back with album number 3 and it's another powerful sonic assault. It's titled Not Broken and it's available on vinyl from Last Night From Glasgow : https://shop.lastnightfromglasgow.com/products/i-will-take ..read more

Maybe you remember New Years Eve 2023. It was the 10th anniversary of Just Some Punk Songs and it was the day I first featured a song by York band Neon Kittens (https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=100088163643448). I commented; "they're a band that are unlikely to ever be part of the mainstream, they very much dance to their own beat."

Well that sentiment is front and center of the opening track of the band's new album. These are the lyrics :

The Pill (https://www.facebook.com/ThePillOfficial/) from Frankfurt, Germany first appeared as a mystery. Out of nowhere their video for "Government Whore" dropped on Youtube. I was completely floored! Who were this band with this incredible singer. Try "Googling" The Pill LOL! Luckily a second video appeared for the song "Salaryman", just as blistering but with more structure. Now I did what I do best and dug deeper to find out they had an upcoming record coming out on "Sounds Of Subterrania" Records. https://shop.soundsofsubterrania.com/produkt/the-pill-hollywood-smile ..read more

Thought Control are a hardcore punk band from New Jersey who sprang to life in 2020 as the solo project of John K. He wrote and performed debut ep Shock To The System on his own but by 2022's PSYCHOS, MURDER, & RAPE RULE THE WORLD 7inch ep he'd recruited a full band line up.
You can check out those releases here : https://thoughtcontrol.bandcamp.com/
The band are now back with a new 8 song ep (mini album?) on UK label Crew Cuts. It's titled Sick & Tired Of The Talking Heads and it takes no prisoners. It's tagged as "music to ..read more

Can I take it as given that you all love Leatherface? Do we all agree that their 1991 album Mush is one of the greatest of all time? Good, then you'll also love today's song.
Jesse were a trio originally featuring Frankie Stubbs, Peter "Spud" Shields and Colin Cumpson (who was later replaced by Leighton Evans). They were active in the mid to late '90s and released a few eps and a self titled album on Rugger Bugger discs.
They don't get the recognition that Leatherface still do but they were bloody good and their reputation will only be ..read more

Come the revolution, it's going to have a great soundtrack. Hopefully provided by Paris anarcho/techno punks Louis Lingg and the Bombs (https://www.facebook.com/louislinggandthebombs).
They were a regular feature on Just Some Punk Songs a few years ago with this possibly being my favourite track by them https://justsomepunksongs.blogspot.com/2015/05/louis-lingg-and-bombs-i-wish-i-was-dead.html
Are they still as good as they were back then? On the evidence of their new ep I'd have to give a resounding yes in reply.
The ep's titled ..read more

It's been 7 years since The Priceduifkes (https://www.facebook.com/thepriceduifkes) last featured on here (https://justsomepunksongs.blogspot.com/2017/03/the-priceduifkes-its-raining-shit.html) but they return today with a track from their very fine new album Dancing Dirty.
They're from Belgium, they've been together since 2003 and I always pronounce their name wrong when I play them on the show (apologies for that). I even made the same mistake on this week's show even though they pronounced it themselves at the end of the song I was playing!

Hailing from Bremen, DefektDefekt (https://www.facebook.com/defektdefektband) are a post punk trio who impressed me back in 2019 when they released a great album titled DEFEKT DEFEKT '79-'81 (https://justsomepunksongs.blogspot.com/2019/06/defektdefekt-claustrophobia.html).
5 years down the line and they're still impressing me. This time around it's by way of a new album, this one's called Aardvark and straight from the opening track you can hear those early 80's UK post punk influences front and centre.
The album's available on ltd edition ..read more
